Questions on Matters Relating to the Work of the Committee

Minutes:

A Member asked a question on the current impact of the new Building Safety Regulations on the Housing Revenue Projects. The response heard was that this required the appointment of specialist architects and project team members with qualifications in building safety. It also could mean more difficulty in the tendering process, as they could be some resistance for projects with higher risk buildings. Lastly, it would also require some buildings being registered with the building safety regulator, which could add to the length of the project. Further information would be supplied separately.
